The Top 10 TV Shows Of 2014, According To Jessica

Here at TVBlend, we live, eat and breathe dramas and comedies. We’re the type of people that are all too happy to analyze the latest death on Revenge or wonder whether Dr. Zoe Hart will eventually settle down with Wade. We’re just as happy to talk zombies as we are to talk time travel romances, and we are usually watching when our favorite shows go off the rails. This month, the awesome CinemaBlend staff is putting together the lists of the shows we feel have really stood out from the pack in 2014. Everyone’s list is different, so if you don’t see you favorites here, be sure to check back in and take a look at our other TV best of lists that will be hitting the homepage over the next few weeks.

Without further ado, here is Jessica’s list of the best shows of 2014.

10. Gracepoint

Fox’s limited series is based on Broadchurch, a British series that would no doubt have made this list if it had also appeared in 2014. As it stands, Gracepoint started with a similar tone and vision, but has capably expanded into its own brand of awesomeness, entrenching viewers into a small town community following the death of a young boy. The writing is good, but the show hinges on capable performances by actors including Michael Pena, who crushes it as lead Mark Solano, Nick Nolte, Jacki Weaver and more. Crime dramas don’t often leave lasting impressions, but Gracepoint has the goods.
